Please, if possinlble Caleb, could you do a follow-up or a Short letting us know what happened with this horse? I know a lot of people would like that. Your friend, the Retired Paramedic and Horse Trainer in Ontario, Canada, Jenn 💖 🇨🇦
Thank you for the education you provide in regard to hooves and hoof care. One of my horses is 14 year old, 18hh Irish Sport Horse that broke his pelvis when he was just 3 days old. He went on to be a very good show jumper but, after bowing his tendon, was retired by the then owner and left in a paddock. By the time he came to me, he was in a bad way. Trying to find a farrier that was willing and able to deal with my boy’s multitude of issues has been almost impossible. For the past couple of weeks, I’ve been addicted to these types of videos because I knew the only way I could help my horse is if I knew enough to say, ‘Hang on a second, what you’re doing to my horse is not right and I can see where the problems are and what isn’t being addressed.’ To cut a very long story short, yesterday we had a new farrier work on my boy. He listened, he addressed the problems, and after two hours of his patience and dedication the relief in my horse’s expression was amazing. An excellent farrier is worth their weight in gold. A few months ago, I had a riding instructor try to convince me to have my horse put down because he ‘was just a paddock ornament’ and ‘what’s the point having a horse I couldn’t ride?’ and my personal favourite (insert sarcasm) ‘Look at it this way, he’s not gonna know he’s dead’. The bottom line is we, as owners, are their voice and we need to make sure we are educated enough to make our voice heard. According to the farrier yesterday, he sees no reason why my boy won’t recover from his issues over time and be able to be ridden again. But even if riding isn’t on the cards, my boy is an amazing Liberty/trick horse with an incredible gentle giant temperament who deserves the best I can offer him. Thanks again for taking the time to make these videos!
What a callous thing for the riding instructor to say about your boy! I'm hoping that he (the horse) is making progress as he is now getting the care he needed thanks to you. And thank you for speaking so well for him.
@@zathynpriest3544 that instructor had no business in interjecting their opinion as it’s your horse and you were researching the best course of action and by the Grace of God, send you a wonderful farrier who listened and sounds like he did a tremendous job. Prayers for you and your horse. 🙏🙏❤️❤️
Thank you for educating yourself to know when farriers are not addressing the problems in your horse. You ARE his voice. You sound like a great owner. God bless and I pray he gets sound, so you can experience some nice memories while riding again.
That poor horse! None of his hooves looked properly shaped. I feel bad for him. You did a great job given the circumstances. It was nice to have the vets-in-training there with you. I hope the horse does get x-rayed so you can properly treat his hooves. Love watching you! Nice to see your face.
This is all fascinating to me. A pleasure to meet you Caleb and I look forward to more of your RUclips videos. After reviewing x-rays, I hope more can be done for that horse's hoof. Fingers crossed.
yes this is for sure a "need radiographs" decision. If the owner cannot provide any clinical history I assume this sweet fellow is an auction or other type scavenge. I have a very soft spot for QHs like him and I hope something can be done or his obvious pain managed
I’m glad you explained that inflammation and extra blood flow due to an injury causes the hoof to grow faster. I’ve never heard anyone explain that before. Can’t wait to see the x-rays.
Looks like he walks on the toe because it's too painful at his heel. And probably has damaged the wall because of the walking on the tip or has hit something, but you can see that he blows out to the sides and that is typically when the weight is on the front. But, I also would like an x-ray, problem, no cause can be higher up.. Either way, it is painful and not okay.
Could you put the clubby foot in a cushion boot (like for laminitic treatment), and pad the other hoof to balance the hight difference until soreness settles? Also, would LOVE to see the X-rays.
Excellent choice to let the conversation flow. Especially about the tractionless footwear!!! I wonder if any vets specialize in just hoof problems. Seems there is plenty to go wrong to make a career of it.
Please, would love an update and I’m a little old lady from Michigan but must say your folks raised a very handsome and courteous son. Give them a big hug 🫂 when you see them. ❤️🐴😊😊🙏🙏👍👍❤❤❤
I am not sure, but would a hoof boot help to ease the pain in this poor horse's hoof, at least until the hoof grow out more to better trim it? but also to protect the area where the side wall has been damaged to prevent further damage?
That was really interesting. When I think about it, when I have a bad foot/leg the other one is doing all the work but I can use a stick to help which, of course, a horse cannot.
Yes, please give us updates on this poor guy, and it would really be cool to watch you shoe him, and what shoe would be comfortable for him. He looks so sad, and in pain, so let’s give him relief! 😮💨 ❤from Maryland I’m not a farrier or horse owner, but we love horse’s in our family! Thank you I love hearing your opinions and commentary!😊
So i am, curious why farriers dont use a crush, like the hoof gp guy uses on cattle? It holds them secure, steady. Weight is carried by the crush, all the feet are off the ground, and multiple feet can be worked on at the same time. Why isn't this used for drama trauma cases where the horse is out of control?
Because it would just teach the horse to be traumatized when someone wants to touch their hooves. They use custom stalls on draft horses with articulating arms but no squeezing. You’re not touching a cows hooves everyday and they are inherently stupid so yeah squeeze chute it is.
Did you, the vet in training OR the owner soak and clean the feet before or after the x-rays to find any infection that needed to be cleaned up the wrapped or filled to support the hoof before it could fully grow out then be trimmed? What grooming and feeding habits were changed to support the faster recovery?
Well I watched some of your other channels and whether you're talking over or just having conversations either way I am learning a little. So to the your question about talking over or letting it go and listening to the conversation either way works for me but the talk over I think you could maybe be easier to lame it down a little bit for some of us. That's my two cents anyhow LOL
I've seen videos were you struggle with very dry hooves (These Hooves Are So Dry!!!), 10 months ago. I've seen Chinese farriers using a torch on dry hooves before they start to cut and it seems to soften the very dry hooves. Is it something you have ever used or would use? I've also seen some Chinese farriers using a cutting machine to start the job and cut off the first layers of the hooves before starting to use their knives, hence they won't use any nippers. They let the machine do the initial hard job, removing the first hard layers, before they use their knives for the finer last part. Is that something wester farriers would ever use? Thanks for all the great videos.
I know this is an older video now but I have a question. What would have potentially changed about the internal structure that has u so unsure about taking down the heel? U said alot about old damage/injuries and mentioned if u took the heel down he might bleed. What about it would be different enough to cause that if u did a complete trim that day?
Mostly I'm looking at the hoof and live tissue the scar tissue had distorted the heal so badly that I was in live tissue where there shouldn't have been any
Also was mentioned a possible wire cut, like he put his foot through a fence and sliced the corona. And at the very end, it was brought up that the horse may have injured the left front hoof, and by over-compensating for it with the right hoof, injured the right hoof.
I went to look for part two of this horses story and I couldn’t find it. So what happened to it? That was a very bad crack in that hoof and I never got a chance to see what happened to it.
I just came across your channel a few days ago and I love your videos, there so relaxing especially the voice overs, but I just have one question ❓ why don't you wear gloves ❓ your poor hands are tore up😕
I dont think I'd even try shoeing him til that all grows out😵💫....if it will...I think that would hurt him...Yes, update, please. Unless the owner hasn't had him very long you'd think they'd have some idea of what happened to that foot...
Can I ask, why would you leave that hoof in such poor shape... it's obvious the heel has major problems... and leaving it only means that the horse is in pain... I'm just asking? I realize that you don't want to make it worse, but not doing anything is just sad....
We Can't do anymore we made it better. In cases like this we do whatever we can to improve the hoof then we get with a vet and come up with a plan to treat the horse going forward
If you’re working on a horse that is clearly in pain due to a sore hoof, why can’t you gently put its foot down rather than kick your leg out and just drop the foot? Such a simple act that takes into account the horse’s pain & discomfort. Also, if you want the truth about laminitis - watch and learn from Lindsay Setchell (RUclips) “It’s not rocket science”.
So 1st the horse has muscles and tendons and bone that support his weight way better than I can if he doesn’t want the foot to hit the ground he can prevent that. 2nd if you pick up horses legs a couple 100 times you will get tired of trying to set them down. 3rd when a horse is leaning on me it is safer and easier on the both of us if I get out from under him as fast as I can. Lastly I am familiar with lindsey Setchell and the barefoot natural horse hoof ideas while they work at times they aren't always the answer. If you want to research founder go check out Dr simon curtis he is arguably one of the most respected and greatest farrier in the world and has done amazing research into founder
Some of Lindsay Setchell's approaches to founder are frankly horrible. Leaving giant flipper toes has no benefit to recovery. The science does not back up a lot of the approaches she and her followers advise. She does have *some* good content, but oh boy, not that stuff... Some of her material is very harmful. And I say that as someone who is a fan of barefoot (when it works).
I have watched horses being shoed and getting hoof care for years. I don't think you know what you're doing at all. You talk to cover up the fact that you're incompetent.
Would like an update on this one; if you have the option.
Me too😊
Me three please.

Yes I will do that for sure 🙂
an obvious prior issue on that hoof... poor thing. keep us posted. Nice to finally see Calebs' face! lol

It was nice to see you on camera. I hope this horse will be ok ❤

Looks like he walks on the toe because it's too painful at his heel.
And probably has damaged the wall because of the walking on the tip or has hit something, but you can see that he blows out to the sides and that is typically when the weight is on the front.

Looks like his heel bulbs were traumatized or almost amputated? That is what looks like is missing?
Did you, the vet in training OR the owner soak and clean the feet before or after the x-rays to find any infection that needed to be cleaned up the wrapped or filled to support the hoof before it could fully grow out then be trimmed? What grooming and feeding habits were changed to support the faster recovery?
I like the videos and the explainations that you give. I am beginning to understand more about the hooves.
I think getting x-rays is crucial to see what's going on in there before any more work is done on the hoof.
This hoof definitely needs an xray to see how much can be taken off and what is going on
I’d like to know what happened with this horses foot. What the problem is.
Update please us this horse, poor baby. God bless you and yours from Yuma Arizona. BTW, you are a cutie!
This is fantastic. I've never owned a horse. I've ridden only once. But this is all so interesting. Great job. Keep up these informative vids, please.
Definitely need an update if possible. Poor horse, I hope is in rescue.
I too would like to see a follow up, if possible. Poor horse. I agree that at some point he got wire cut. I've seen mant in my 70+ yrs.
Well I watched some of your other channels and whether you're talking over or just having conversations either way I am learning a little. So to the your question about talking over or letting it go and listening to the conversation either way works for me but the talk over I think you could maybe be easier to lame it down a little bit for some of us.

Caleb, You will be known as one of the greats in our industry!
Be interesting to see the xrays.
Do you have an update on him? I would love to see how's he coming along.
I'm so curious on the x-ray and see if a difference can be made..
Do you frequently use sedation to trim & shoe? Horse didn't look all that hard to wrk w/.
I know this is an older video now but I have a question. What would have potentially changed about the internal structure that has u so unsure about taking down the heel? U said alot about old damage/injuries and mentioned if u took the heel down he might bleed. What about it would be different enough to cause that if u did a complete trim that day?
Mostly I'm looking at the hoof and live tissue the scar tissue had distorted the heal so badly that I was in live tissue where there shouldn't have been any
You look nothing like I thought you would! 🤣 I've been an avid watcher for awhile and I thought you'd look completely different!
It's cause I'm so homely try not to put my face on videos lol don't want to ruin a good video😅
Not an expert, but when I saw that hoof I thought it was a club foot.
Can you look into making a somewhat direct followup to this video at the vet and see wat cán be done if anything?
WOW POOR HORSE GLAD YOU HELPED 🥰🥰🥰
Poor thing. How does that even happen?
In the video, he suggests an old access.
Also was mentioned a possible wire cut, like he put his foot through a fence and sliced the corona. And at the very end, it was brought up that the horse may have injured the left front hoof, and by over-compensating for it with the right hoof, injured the right hoof.
"Oh god, I'm on camera now! Auuugh!"
I felt that 😹😹😹
I went to look for part two of this horses story and I couldn’t find it. So what happened to it? That was a very bad crack in that hoof and I never got a chance to see what happened to it.
Any update?
My back hurts just watching these farriers stay bent over like that.
Poor thing. I hope it can be fixed
That was very interesting.
Learned a lot from watching this video, thanks. Best to the soon to be vet.
I just came across your channel a few days ago and I love your videos, there so relaxing especially the voice overs, but I just have one question ❓ why don't you wear gloves ❓ your poor hands are tore up😕
Would the Versa Glue On shoes work for a case like this?
It might but I would probably use a regular straight bar
I feel like hooves and fingernails should be cross applicable. Like a fiberglass overlay would help
Why aren't you putting hoof conditioner on.
you would think the owner would clean the horse's leg for the farrier !
Would loke what was the outcome
That poor horse 💔
Would you please do a follow up? Thanks
Poor damn horse
"Horse is lame" don't talk about my boy like that
Hes really club footed but definitely looks like the entire lower foot is trying to break off.
He looks young were this would not be a set back for him . And with proper care will recover nicely 😊
You are awseome!!!!!!
Interesting! Follow-up, please!👍👍👍🐴🐴🐴
Having hooves seems a ouchie way to wander the 🌄
I dont think I'd even try shoeing him til that all grows out😵💫....if it will...I think that would hurt him...Yes, update, please. Unless the owner hasn't had him very long you'd think they'd have some idea of what happened to that foot...
This one is just converting feed. Unless it’s a really exceptional animal that one would go down the road.
👌

We Can't do anymore we made it better. In cases like this we do whatever we can to improve the hoof then we get with a vet and come up with a plan to treat the horse going forward
Def an xray
Please let us know how this horse turns out !!!!!!!!!
Please update
Why don’t you X-ray the foot! Please let us know how this hoof turns out.
We are going too we didn't have access to it on this particular day so we did what we could
Hie aweful that his hoof is like that I hooe it can be helped
Nice change to your format. You’re a teacher for sure.
That's what killed Barbaro. His injury healed, but the lopsided way he had to stand caused him to incurably founder.
I'm not a ferrier or vet, but that looks like an abscess.
If you’re working on a horse that is clearly in pain due to a sore hoof, why can’t you gently put its foot down rather than kick your leg out and just drop the foot? Such a simple act that takes into account the horse’s pain & discomfort.

Quittor maybe
I can't watch these dogs eating the scrap craps without turning my stomach
😂 same, even though I know doggoes will be fine
Acts like his feet hurt 🥺
I guess everyone does the treatment for these issues sorry im confused here
😕
Why don't you wear gloves? Your hands are all banged up!
He's got to feel the sole depth to know how far to cut, probs annoying to take them on and off all day
God
How can you let Brandon advertise on your content
Talk about counter content
Idk what's being advertised unfortunately. And that's really unfortunate I feel like they're missing their target audience lol
He does need his heels let down, but i understand why you cant. Be interesting to see the internal things going on in there...
Please refer to the vet student and stable owner as women....not girls
Lols I sometimes call the fellahs boys, oopsies
I have watched horses being shoed and getting hoof care for years. I don't think you know what you're doing at all. You talk to cover up the fact that you're incompetent.
Wow tell me how you really feel. Also are you a farrier
